To NYI: Chris Tanev

To Vancouver: 12 overall (Calgary pick)

Why?
Lou loves goalies and strong defense.

Lou will surely get a solid tender as he did in New Jersey and Toronto. The Islanders were exposed defensivly throughout the regular reason and would have lost Tavares because of it had Lou not come in an shored things up.

Tanev is controlable and under a reasonable contract.

It gives Vancouver a second pick in the top 12. They desperately need more picks to pump the rebuild up.

This trade has been discussed already and Isles fans aren't into it. We're pretty locked in on the right side right now, ideally we need a second pair LD, Tanev can't stay healthy, etc etc etc. Maybe Lou feels differently but I'm not enthusiastic, would rather get a cheaper stopgap option.
